House introduces bill to legalize CBD Oils

PoliticalPosted Jul 28 2014

A bipartisan bill called "Charlotte's Web Medical Hemp Act of 2014" was introduced today that would legalize CBD oils for severe epilepsy patients. If passed, the compound will be excluded from the Controlled Substances Act.

"This bill in no way changes my stance on marijuana -- I still disagree with the recreational use of marijuana," Perry said in a statement. "However, these children and individuals like them deserve a chance to lead a healthy and productive life and our government shouldn’t stand in the way."
